Creativity-- Richard Florida and Sir Ken Robinson (Jan. 2012 Discussion Notes)

Robinson

Florida

Innovation has to be inclusive
Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried something new
Paradigm shift into the norm
Post industrial
Creativity is as important as literacy
Intelligence is not just academic
Missing out on un-tapped resources
Creativity thrives on diversity
Everyone has creative capacity
Beauty in the …
Passion and creativity
Stratify values of creativity
Stigmatize mistakes vs. part of learning process
Innovation may be a new lens on what is already there
Be a creative leader

Status quo is unacceptable
Creative class wants to provide input
Rise of Creative class plus rise of creativity in other sectors
Creativity must be nurtured/motivated
Tolerance, technology and talent
Problem solving and collaboration key
Time: habits are different, time is flexible
Expect employees to fail
Creative class creates a rise in service class
No collar work places: RTP, Seattle. Tolerant of the creative class differences
Less segregation of classes in creative areas
